First of all, I'd like to not recommend you to do this because it will bring a lot of trouble for you (File Permission, R/A/W Speed per File Size/Total File Qty, etc).
Second, a Large Memory Windows Server with SFU (Service for Unix) is essential. And you need have a specific Disk (or specific folder) for all the NFS Sharing Data Storage.
Third, make all of your Unix User/Windows User/User Mapping Relation-ship is strictly built and need have more and more try on the first test folder. Keep remember make a complex testing scenario to cover all the situation you would meet.
At last, using Google or this Forum if you meet any problem on SFU. Enjoy....^_^

Regarding the speed, it depends, as per my experience, Memory should be 2 times than the total max file size the NFS Client would access (R/W/X). Also simple permission is preferred because the permission authority rule is totally different between Windows and Unix.

file::spec::cygwin
File::Spec::Cygwin(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation File::Spec::Cygwin(3pm)
NAME
File::Spec::Cygwin - methods for Cygwin file specs
SYNOPSIS
require File::Spec::Cygwin; # Done internally by File::Spec if needed
DESCRIPTION
See File::Spec and File::Spec::Unix. This package overrides the implementation of these methods, not the semantics.
This module is still in beta. Cygwin-knowledgeable folks are invited to offer patches and suggestions.
canonpath
Any "" (backslashes) are converted to "/" (forward slashes), and then File::Spec::Unix canonpath() is called on the result.
file_name_is_absolute
True is returned if the file name begins with "drive_letter:", and if not, File::Spec::Unix file_name_is_absolute() is called.
tmpdir (override)
Returns a string representation of the first existing directory from the following list:
$ENV{TMPDIR}
/tmp
$ENV{'TMP'}
$ENV{'TEMP'}
C:/temp
Since Perl 5.8.0, if running under taint mode, and if the environment variables are tainted, they are not used.
case_tolerant
Override Unix. Cygwin case-tolerance depends on managed mount settings and as with MsWin32 on GetVolumeInformation() $ouFsFlags ==
FS_CASE_SENSITIVE, indicating the case significance when comparing file specifications. Default: 1
